Suddenly I wanted to draw Elias fighting? He doesn’t do it much in canon because he sucks
Yeeeeah I get why people tend to think they’re siblings… but they do have that sort of dynamic so I don’t really mind
annalandin said: You haven’t read the books, eh? Ah well. Let’s just say that I always assume a tragic end for ALL characters, until proven otherwise.
I finished the fifth book yesterday… Obviously anyone could die at any given moment but it doesn’t bother me; I prefer to be optimistic towards my favorite characters, though honestly I don’t even mind if they die because GRRM writes good deaths :’) None so far have been stupid or pointless in my opinion
evelmiina said: ahahaa I hope you’re not joking because I really like them together too :’)
Hahaa not joking at all! It’s a popular ship though, isn’t it? Who could resist the thought of an ugly chick getting some love u////u
Shit I can’t wait for S3, apparently GRRM himself will write the episode with the best Brienne/Jaime parts…..
annalandin said: Yessss! We share an OTP (an OTP bound, I fear, for a tragic end) and this is the BEST Brienne and Jaime I’ve ever seen drawn. So awesome.
Thanks! And noooo I want them to get married and have strong manly babies together :(
Are there ghosts in other parts of the world, too, or just in the country where Santa Luison is located?
Officially the entire ghost population lives within the city area since it’s the only place in the world they’re legally allowed to! Leaving the city is permitted for a limited time (for work purposes); leaving the country is not. The government takes these measures to prevent the virus from spreading further
That said, a few adventurous types have attempted to sneak out into neighboring countries but it has never ended happily. If/when they get caught the punishment is harsh on either side of the border :’)
please don't tell me that eetu ja konna thing is an actual show running on tv please omg i'm cryin g
It’s a movie actually
It was shown in theaters
How old are you?
I’m reaching the point in life where I’m supposed to:
- pull my shit together
- graduate
- get a job and/or life
Emphasis on “supposed to”
Hi :) I was wondering: if you're from Finland, how come you have such perfect english?
Why thank you! :’)
Kids in Nordic countries are taught English from a young age and we get constantly exposed to the language from TV and movies (which are subtitled) so the younger generations have a pretty good understanding on average. I learned most of my English from the internet though.
I get kinda obsessive about having flawless grammar, often checking with Google when I’m unsure. Mastering the language wouldn’t hurt since I write comics in English too… Aside from that though I rarely speak English so that part tends to get a little rusty
The skeleton giant is reaching 4000 notes! Wowww!
A few people have wondered about the story behind the pic… there isn’t really one (yet) but I find myself thinking about it every now and then, and trying to doodle a proper design for the dude
In short: he’s a witch, and in his culture a witch apprentice is expected to catch and raise a wild animal into their pet/familiar. This dude ended up with a particularly big one, maybe out of some urge to show off. Then the beast died, but it’s okay because magic
I made him into a really feminine type because I rarely design these sort of characters
Where does Cypress receive the money to pay the worker's salaries, living and all the needed equipment? Are they government-sponsored or something else?
The government funds Cypress via the regular police force which commissions them to handle their more demanding/dangerous tasks; most of the salaries come from there. There are some investors as well, for example medical companies that are interested in the virus.
Thanks though! I appreciate these sort of questions because they force me to think a little :)

well I’m bored so
A question for Chie: Why do you wear your hair in twin-tails? Ever considered image change, like ponytail, braids, or haircut?
A thought just struck me. If two ghosts get together and *ahem* do that, will their child be a ghost too?
Oh that?
Nah, babies don’t happen. The virus makes you infertile
